Also if you really need a telnet cli= ent=20 you can install the telnetd package anyway so there's no need to habe it = in=20 the base packages. Don't ask me when I last started a telnetd it's long ago. I don't need a=20 telnet client either. If I need one I can install it but thats nothing yo= u=20 _need_ to have installed especially in times of ssh. I'd better understan= d if=20 netcat was in the base packages for a distro aimed at network pro's.
